16000 hits per year) The price to advertise is STILL a
bargain, at $100 per year...mere fractions of a penny per hit.

next email you receive with "Please remove me" in the subject line or
contact any board member & you will be removed from out mailing list.

We have had some email problems in the past. We have had a problem knowing
whether or not emails are being received. There are various causes attributing to this. Some of the
causes include:

1)
Email addresses changed and not everyone
notified of this.

2)
People change companies and do not notify
MUG of their new location.

3) Spam filters put MUG mail into Spam
folders or block them all together

4) System crashes and email are lost.

5)
Host providers are down and email get lost.

6) Firewall's reject some IP
addresses associated with email source.

We can all help to try to prevent as much of this as possible in
several ways:

If you have any of the above problems, when repaired, contact the webmaster
for any updates of mail that may have transpired during that period you email
was down. Check your firewall to see if it will allow MUGnews and emails. Add the appropriate email
addresses to your whitelist, as necessary. If you feel you are not receiving your email from
MUG contact the webmaster to check into this for you. Board members should
respond to all email so the sender knows you have received it. If there
is no reply within a reasonable amount of time it could be assumed the mail
may be lost and maybe should be resent. I would welcome any other
suggestions that might help us in this area and we would be glad to pass them
on. Obviously if email is currently down or recipient can't receive
for other reasons they will see this posted on our web site.

Hopefully this and any other suggestions we might receive will help
eliminate most of the problems we have had. As always your suggestions
and cooperation are always appreciated.

A copy of these messages will remain permanently on our website
for your convenience.
